What songs do you consider non-hits from Mirage?

There is so little to hate about Oh Diane, if only because it's such a small song, both in it's brief length and scant lyrics. It's more of a sketch than it is a song. It certainly fits in with Lindsey's predisposition (on the Mirage album) to a retro 1950's style.

It's a non-offensive, inconsequential, pleasant but paper-thin slice of music. But it does completely baffle me that it got traction in Europe, and was a hit. It's even featured on their single disc version of The Very Best of Fleetwood Mac. I have the single 45 picture sleeve single, as well as the 12" inch single with artwork featuring the French Penguin logo. I love that more than the song.

But why the overkill about your desire to kill Diane? She's barely a blip on the radar. Your desire to kill concerns me! Oh Viv!

Note: Has anyone noticed that the lol icon is not what it should be?
